British Council is bringing in FOLK ARCHIVE to India for the first time. Folk Archive is a vibrant, visual account of contemporary popular British culture by leading international artists Jeremy Deller and Alan Kane. Folk Archive brings together drawing, painting, film, performance, costume, decoration, political opinion and humour, and some astonishing objects from prisoners and community groups, Notting Hill Carnival troupes, protesters, pop fans, teenagers, villagers and the homeless. Treading the fine line between art and anthropology, Deller and Kane selected over 280 elements over a period of six years to form an archive which provides a snap-shot of the state of contemporary folk art in the UK. Folk Archive attempts to update the idea of folk art by collecting an array of objects besides documentation of performances and idiosyncratic events associated with Britain’s contemporary local folk culture. Folk Archive was acquired by the British Council Collection in 2007 and has since been exhibited in Belgrade, Paris, Milan and Shanghai. After Mumbai, the archive travels to Kolkata and Delhi.
At: Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum, Mumbai
